Home sweet home!!

Made it home okay, just a little bit car sick. I think it will take awhile for his motion sickness to go away. No major pain, just constant headache. He was bummed out that they shaved his eye lashes off, but they'll grow back!! His eye is pretty swollen and we have to do multiple drops 4times a day, makes it a little tender and they "sting like hell". :)
At home and happy, has to wear a patch or glasses to protect it when walking or sleeping. No bending, driving, exercising, or flying for minimum of 4weeks. He'll cover the driving more in depth at each appointment, its basically when he can see again. He said that the gas bubble won't dissipate for 6-8 weeks and some people cannot see out of that eye until then. Others, what they do see has a crazy depth perception. We'll just have to take it day by day!! Our next appointment is Thursday next week. I'll keep everyone posted!! In the meantime, heres a few pics!!! Thanks again for all the support!!!
